Dre’s #breakfastbite.. According to a consumer group, #Baltimore area drivers in black neighborhoods pay way more for car insurance than drivers in white neighborhoods. What are your thoughts?

Rashawn Thompson I guess they figure your car is at greater risk to get broken into or vandalised in the hood
Terrence Teel It’s unfortunate insurance companies are aware of liabilities in those areas, statistically hire crime rates.
_siriam_ They figure black people have a higher chance of getting their stuff broken into because of the neighborhood.
mak912@lyn_nee_tah remember our discussion about how certain demographics affect their local economy?
ss_mrimpala1 We been known this tho
deezy_dorite City Driving vs Suburbia Driving
tha_focused1 It’s such a shame how companies have been using race to make a profit, and it’s been going on for years, they’re just being exposed now, if it’s not this it’s the peasant insurance that’s taken out on us at our jobs, #CRAZY😡😡😡
1sickcharger It been like this bro that’s why you use a white area address its loop holes around everything bro gm @drejohnson1 #Early
lynwoodm10 Get some white friends and use their address. Works like a charm
_ryolo_ I have to do with the fact that there is a larger population smaller areas. A lot of cars on the tighter roads of the city can cause more accidents so the insurance companies charge more because there is a higher likelihood of crashing.
thecarteragency It’s bad that we look at it like black neighborhoods vs white neighborhoods. The reality is insurance decreases with traffic. Unfortunately, the urban neighborhoods that house most of our good old black folk are high traffic areas. But it’s designed to be that way. The hustle and bustle of the city vs the county and then the country side. Black people can never escape racism if we continue to see and think and teach everything as such. We’ve institutionalized racism into our unconscious thinking and it fuels the racial lash outs that blacks and whites have alike.
xtina_vii_xvii it’s not about “black” neighborhoods vs “white” neighborhoods…its neighborhoods PERIOD
